Remove from heat and quickly add peanut butter stir until just combined, then stir in vanilla and oatmeal. On a sheet of waxed paper, drop mixture by the teaspoonfuls (I use a cookie scoop).

My son has a peanut allergy and I’ve made these with Wow Butter…they turn out great..I’ve always added a cup of shredded or flaked coconut to this recipe..also, I add a cup of mini marshmallows to the boiling mixture at the end and let them melt in before pouring over the dry ingredients.

I made these. They sat for about 3 he’s. They were yummy but gooy. They sat over night and were still good. I put them in the fridge but still no change. My kids still loved them, that’s all that mattered.

I have made these many times and they never harden up for me – always they stay gooey. I time the cook time at a rolling boil for exactly 1 minute. Maybe there too much humidity in the air here in western Oregon??
